Game Thread: Lady Vols v EKU; Sunday 2PM, Home, SECN+ (Final LV'z 72-63)

[SGMVols]

EKU 8-1 , don't care they're horrible....

Only team with a pulse they played is Utah and they lost by 44

 

[SGMVols]

This team is 8-1 and they don’t even know how to start a dribble drive without traveling lol.

Maybe you should request a meeting with the AD to discuss your concerns. If it is not granted, just have him removed from his position. If that doesn’t work for you, just suck it up and drop your issue because everyone in a position to act disagrees with you.

Why would I do that? Do I lead with the coach recruiting players who can’t make layups (your topic not mine) or do we discuss the party deck ideas at the stadium?

 

[Nute Gunray]

U learn how to make layups when you’re a kid, so I guess all the coaches they’ve had throughout the years didn’t teach them.

They didn't learn.

 

[Majors]

These players are 18-23 years old and played organized basketball most of their lives...

They should have been taught on how to shoot a proper lay up years ago..good grief...

Day 1 youth league for some, most learn in the drive way before they attend a practice.

Here comes the patented opponent hitting back to back 3s to end the half and get back in it

 

[VOLINVONORE]

I disagree. Their is a proper technique for a layup: How to Do a Layup: 12 Steps (with Pictures) - wikiHow. Coach should teach if player cannot make layups.

And player, both men and women are taught that in preschool practice. It is up to the players to do what they have been taught.

Well, 3 plus a layup. I was close enough.

 

[SGMVols]

Wells is a total bust. Why does she even play?

 

[And1]

Another stellar end of the quarter.

 

[NoBackBoard]

It hurt to watch EKU make that fastbreak layup to end the half and it’s the same situation Wynn messed up on.

 

[knoxvol52]

I assume that turnover by Wells was due to coaching....
Should have been taught the art of dribbling....damn you coach Harper..

 

[chuckiepoo]

Dribble, dribble….turnover. Terrible way to end the half.
36-31.

 

[VOLINVONORE]

Why would I do that? Do I lead with the coach recruiting players who can’t make layups (your topic not mine) or do we discuss the party deck ideas at the stadium?

I didn’t think you would do anything except gripe about the coaches.

 

[VolBalls33]

Wtf is this? However anyone has felt or feels I don't think anyone thought it would be THIS bad. SC might beat us by 30 plus.

 

[alexvol]

Wow...... ahead of powerhouse EKU at the half ! go Lady Vols .....

 

[Volfan2012]

10 turnovers only about three forced and 34 percent shooting. We won the rebounding 23 to 22 lol.

It is on Harper because she pursued Wells from the portal.

SC will score 110 on us in Columbia.

We are 2 of 11 from 3. Spear 0 points.

She took her she has to play her

 

[travis929]

Wells is a total bust. Why does she even play?

She's not excelled to the level that many of us hoped she would (yet), but she at least leads the team in assists, assist percentage, A/TO ratio, FT% (aside from Rickea), and (lowest) foul rate.

 

[Volfan2012]

We miss to many open shots and make to many unforced turnovers to even get any kind of margin on a team like this. If we can't play a lot better this could come down to a one possession game.

My Church league team teaches how to make layups and they do a great job when the lights are turned on.

I dont blame the players. You did earlier which may be the difference.
